Dobot M1 is a crowd-funded robotic 3D printing arm project that aims to make a cost-effective consumer 3D printer, which does not just 3D printing, but also laser-engraving, PCB soldering (!), drawing (with ink, on paper/canvas), and packaging of delicate objects. The developers have two working prototypes, which meet all the functions its designers set out to give it. As an appreciation of the USD $285,000 fundraising for the project, its makers have announced a giveaway.
